The Ribbon
Microsoft Office 2007 provides easy access to commands through the Ribbon, which replaces the menus and toolbars found in previous versions. The
purpose of the Ribbon is to keep commands visible while you work instead of hiding them under menus and toolbars.

The Microsoft Office Button, located in the upper left-hand corner of the program window, replaces the

the commands you use most frequently. The Save,

on the Quick Access Toolbar by default, but you can
add and remove commands to meet your needs.

XML Compatibility
The new Microsoft Office Open XML format (.docx, .pptx, .xlsx, etc.) is based
on the XML (Extensible Markup Language) programming language. Here are
its main benefits:
• Safer documents: Documents containing unwanted code, macros, or
controls are easier to identify and block.
• Reduced file size: All Office 2007 documents are automatically
compressed.
• Improved information security: Personal and business-sensitive
information is easier to remove.
• Improved damaged-file recovery: A file can still be opened even if part
of it is damaged.
• Easier integration: Document content can be shared with and opened in
other programs.
